Wild! I can't figure how adding the missing couples' names to Wu's account would allow her to access the missing couple's money either. I'm trying to find the court documents (federal court in Central Islip, NY). MOO the accused have been quite busy!

But still not clear on how that enabled him to drain their accounts.

The feds say he had 17 credit cards under 12 names, New York and Oklahoma driver’s licenses under names not his own, bank statements under 10 names, checks under five names from four different banks, a New Jersey tax refund check belonging to someone else, and several notes with names, dates of births, Social Security numbers, bank account pins and passwords."
Also, "Wang, who has addresses in College Point, Queens, and Roslyn, L.I., was busted in California Thursday and released on bond. Wu, who lives in Flushing, was arrested Thursday in Texas and remains held on an immigration detainer."
